Mathematics is…

o the science of patterns and

relationship.
o a way of thinking.

o a language.
o a discipline.
CRITICAL THINKING

 According to Scriven and Paul (1987),

it is the intellectually disciplined
process of actively and skillfully
conceptualizing, applying, analyzing,
synthesizing and/or evaluating
information gathered from/ generated
by observation, experience, reflection,
reasoning, or communication, as a guide
to belief and action.
PROBLEM SOLVING

 According to Polya (1945-1962), it is

finding a way around a difficulty, around
an obstacle, and finding a solution to a
problem that is unknown.

AREA KEY STAGE STANDARDS (K – 3)
STANDARD
The learner At the end of Grade 3, the learner
demonstrates demonstrates understanding and
understanding appreciation of key concepts and skills
and appreciation involving numbers and number sense
of key concepts (whole numbers up to 10,000 and the four
and principles of fundamental operations including money,
mathematics as ordinal numbers up to 100th, basic
applied - using concepts of fractions); measurement
appropriate (time, length, mass, capacity, area of
technology - in square and rectangle); geometry (2-
problem solving, dimensional and 3-dimensional objects,
critical thinking, lines, symmetry, and tessellation);
communicating, patterns and algebra (continuous and
reasoning, repeating patterns and number
making sentences); statistics and probability
connections, (data collection and representation in
representations, tables, pictographs and bar graphs and
and decisions in outcomes)as applied using appropriate
real life. technology - in critical thinking, problem
solving, reasoning, communicating, making
connections, representations, and
decisions in real life.
LEARNING
OUTCOMES
Numbers and Number Sense -
visualizes and represents
numbers from 0 to 100 using
a variety of materials.
Measurement - tells and
writes time in minutes
including a.m. and p.m. using
analog and digital clocks.
Geometry - identifies, names,
and describes the four basic
shapes (square, rectangle,
triangle and circle) in 2-
dimensional (flat/plane) and
3-dimensional (solid) objects.
Statistics and Probability -
sorts, classifies, and
organizes data in tabular
form and presents this into a
vertical or horizontal bar
graph.
